Outline• Machine learning framework for skin cancer detection

– Involves all issues of machine learning• An image processing system for skin cancer detection• An image processing system for skin cancer detection

– Involves feature selection, projection and integration– Involves linear and nonlinear classifiers

• Other approaches• Summary

The potential of learning machines• Most real world problems are too complex to be handled by classical

physical models• In most real world situations there is access to data describing properties • In most real world situations there is access to data describing properties

of the problem• Learning machines can offer

– Learning of optimal prediction/decision/action– Adaptation to the usage environment– New insights into the problem and suggestions for improvement

Other techniques – Raman spectroscopy• A NIR laser beam excites molecules in the skin• The Raman scattering is a frequency shift in the reflected light which is

related to the molecule structurerelated to the molecule structure
